Bollywood’s much adored Chi Chiji, reportedly, seems to be extremely hurt by the fact that he hasn’t been invited on Karan Johar’s famous talk show ever since it began. A while ago, Karan had expressed his eagerness on calling the hit hero from the 90s on his show as he thought he was a very interesting personality. However, in a recent interview with Pinkvilla, Govinda seemed to share a completely different perspective on the same.

When asked about whether he will appear on the industry’s most conjectured couch, he said quite astonishing things about Karan’s ways in the industry.

Here’s what Govinda said on Karan Johar’s apology for not inviting him on the show.

He (Karan) must have said that it would be a matter of national respect for him if he calls Govinda, but he is releasing Varun’s (Dhawan) film (Badrinath ki Dulhania) just a week after my film. He shows that he’s very humble and innocent, but woh mujhe David (Dhawan) se zyaada jealous and zyaada khatarnak lagta hai.

Govinda is all set to make a comeback with Aa Gaya Hero.

He has never called me in 30 years, he doesn’t see actors who are not a part of his group and doesn’t even say hello. He’s not that kindhearted. It’s a well-planned and smart move by Karan that he’s releasing his film a week after mine. Mujhe woh kabhi seedha nahi lagta hai.

In an interview, Govinda told TOI about how he feels regarding constant similarities drawn between him and Varun. The yesteryear hero seemed like he was in quite a mood to give his opinion on everything including Salman Khan.

Ranveer Singh and Varun Dhawan both have a body like Salman Khan. But they can’t say it. If they call themselves as Salman Khan, then they won’t get films. They can’t afford to be against Khan. This is how the filmy world works. How can he (Varun) be like me? To become Govinda, he needs to be innocent, uneducated and a poor village boy. Varun is already a son of a director. In the last six years, he hasn’t done more than two films with his father, whereas I did 17 films with his father (David Dhawan).

Chi Chi also reportedly spoke about his sour equation with David Dhawan.

When I asked David to make the 18th film with me, he took my subject and titled it Chashme Baddoor and cast Rishi Kapoor in it. Then I asked him to put me as a guest appearance. He didn’t do that too. After that, I didn’t meet him for some years. I kept requesting him to take at least one shot with me so that it could be my 18th film with him. But I don’t know what he had in his mind.

Govinda’s own production directed by Dipankar Senapati is expected to release on 3 March this year.

We are wondering what’s making all our lovely stars fall for a cold war trend suddenly. Or is this just a stint for publicity?
